No Bake Oreo
Cheesecake is the ultimate cookies and cheese dessert. I am so excited to bring you this amazing recipe today for No Bake - wait for it - Oreo Cheesecake😃.
This
gorgeous cheesecake is literally filled with the heavenly goodness
of Oreo cookies and cream. Oreos get all soft like Oreo ice cream sandwich and then you have the sweet,
salty & tangy flavor from the cheesecake and crunchy Oreos on the top.
What’s not to love here? Honestly, the hardest part of this cheesecake is the waiting
to slice it.
You may not believe this but the filling is made with only five ingredients - Good quality full fat cream cheese, heavy whipped cream, powdered sugar, vanilla extract and Oreo cookies. That’s it!! The texture is insanely creamy and light and the flavour is absolutely perfect. The trick is to make sure to chill the cheesecake for at least 6 hours, overnight is the best option! The longer it stays in the refrigerator, the better it will hold together.

Judge me if you want to but I have a
serious obsession with cookies and Oreos, Oreo drinks and Oreo desserts. Are
you the same way?
I made this Oreo cake for the first time on my birthday last month. It was good but it wasn’t perfect. In that recipe I chose to add lightest version of cream cheese that too in less quantity as I have become very calorie conscious these days (don’t know how and why J) I didn’t know that light cream cheese is a Big NO for a cheesecake recipe. So the taste of that cheesecake tasted more like a cream cake, cheese flavour was missing in that one. But it wasn’t bad😥. Basically I tried to play with the recipe. Honestly what I realized that playing with a cake recipe is a sin! So later I decided to make this cheesecake again to get the perfection, this time I didn’t play with the recipe and made an ultimate delicious No bake Oreo Cheesecake.J

Below is the
picture of my first No-bake Oreo Cheesecake.
It’s the start
of the June month and officially summer season around the globe, at least a good part of the globe. As the temperature starts climbing I think no one wants to turn on their
oven. This No Bake cheesecake is
such a great option to make and enjoy at this time of the year. Also this would
be a great dessert option for a get together, small party or even for your
birthday or any family member’s birthday.
Making a No Bake Oreo Cheesecake is really simple; you don’t even need to turn your oven on. Ssshhh, don't tell anyone it's secretly super easy to make! 😜

Start with
the cookies. One for you, one for the crust and repeat…Just kidding!!😉😄
This recipe
calls for 30 Oreo cookies. The base of this recipe starts with an Oreo crust,
which is just a simple mixture of Oreo crumbs and some melted butter. It is really necessary that all of the Oreo
crumbles are completely covered in butter.
The butter helps them solidify and stick together. If you need to add more, go ahead! Obviously, you don’t have to add too much
butter, that would result in a runny crust, but too little butter will result
in a crumbly crust. Press the
mixture into the bottom of a springform baking tin and keep it in fridge while you prepare
the rest things.

Course- Dessert
Servings- 10 slices
Preparation Time- 45 minutes
Total Time- 6 hours at least
Ingredients-
For the base:
10 Oreos
50 grams
melted butter
For cheesecake mixture:
520 grams
cream cheese softened to room temperature (I bought 1 Philadelphia original family
pack (340g) and 1 Philadelphia original small pack (180g))
1/3 cup powdered
sugar
2 teaspoon
vanilla extract
285 ml heavy
whipping cream
10 Oreos roughly
broken/chopped for filling
10 Oreos roughly
broken/chopped for decorating
Instructions-
How to make the base:
Step 1-
Transfer Oreos to a food processor and grind until you have fine crumbs. If you
don’t have a food processor then place the cookies into a plastic bag and crush
them into fine crumbs with a rolling pin.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 2-
In a mixing bowl, melt butter in the microwave and then pour over the Oreo crumbs
and mix until the crumbs are completely covered in butter.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 3-
Line the bottom of a springform baking tin with parchment paper, scoop the crumbs
and butter mixture into the pan.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 4-
Spread it evenly and firmly press it down into one even layer with the help of
a flat bottomed glass or bowl. Now transfer the tin to the refrigerator to
chill while you make the cheesecake filling.
Step 1-
In a large mixing bowl; with the help of a beater/whisk beat the cream cheese
until smooth and fluffy. (I don’t have an electric beater so I have used the
stainless steel whisk/egg beater to beat my cream cheese).
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 2-
Now add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract and beat again until everything
is well combined. Now keep it aside.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 3- In
a separate bowl; pour the chilled heavy whipping cream and start whipping slowly
with a hand whisk then increase the speed until the mixture thickens and stiff
peaks form. It took me 7 minutes to make whipping cream by a hand whisk. (If
you have an electric beater then use that it will make the process easy and
less time consuming).
----------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 4- Add
the whipped cream to the cream cheese mixture and gently mix it with the hand
whisk until just combined.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 5-
Now roughly break 10 Oreo cookies and add them in the cheese and cream mixture,
Mix gently till well combined.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 6- Remove
the springform tin from the refrigerator, pour the cheesecake filling onto the Oreo
crust, and carefully spread it around into one even layer. Smooth out the top.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 7-
For decorating; place roughly chopped Oreos on top randomly anywhere and gently
press them down a little.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 8-
Cover tightly with a cling film and transfer back to the refrigerator to chill
for at least 5-6 hours or overnight. Remove the no-bake cheesecake from the tin,
slice and enjoy!
Tips-
Don’t use a low
fat or lightest version cream cheese, always go with the full fat one for
maximum flavour.
Make sure
your cream cheese is at room temperature.
Always use a
springform tin so you can easily remove your cheesecake. Simply run a knife
around the edge and then gently remove the cake rim when you’re ready to serve.
Let your
cheesecake set in the fridge for at least 6 hours, or overnight. This recipe
doesn’t have any gelatin but if you beat the mixture well, the whipped cream
will easily allow the cheesecake to hold its shape.
